runtime error 2147220960 (80040220) The SendUsing configuration is invalid
Hi. Im trying to send an email from VB6
here is the code:
'Set objmail = CreateObject("CDO.Message"
'objmail.To = "info@X"
'objmail.From = "register@X"
'objmail.subject = "Request for new user"
'objmail.textbody = "Company name: " & RName & vbCr & "Contact name: " & Cie & vbCr _
' & "Email: " & txtEmail.Text & vbCr & "Phone number: " & txtPhone.Text & _
' vbCr & vbCr & txtMes.Text
'Me.MousePointer = 11
'objmail.send
'Me.MousePointer = 0
It works fine on all the computers in my company, but when other companies try to use the program I created, they get:
"runtime error 2147220960 (80040220) The SendUsing configuration
value is invalid".
I checked a lot of websites and couldn't really find a good solution for VB6.
Could anyone help?
I think it has to do with the anonymous smtp stuff...

if you're using microsoft outlook, it's propably because those computers have not been configured to send mails using outlook.
With the SMTP server, the address of the server has to be known by the program

no no no...
Its a VB application, where I have a FORM that when you click onto register, it sends directly from that form an email... It has nothing to do with outlook express as far as I know :/
in the mail object, there is supposed to be something with the SMTP that you can set up. with a login and a password.
and I think that's the missing thing so that my mail object would work on any station.

the code does not work at all I had to change the whole code.
use this instead...
Dim iMsg As New CDO.Message
Dim iConf As New CDO.Configuration
Dim Flds As ADODB.Fields
Set Flds = iConf.Fields
With Flds
.Item(cdoSendUsingMethod) = cdoSendUsingPort
.Item(cdoSMTPServer) = SMTP
.Item(cdoSMTPConnectionTim
.Item(cdoSMTPAuthenticate)
' IMPORTANT: Storing user names and passwords inside source code
' can lead to security vulnerabilities in your software. Do not
' store user names and passwords in your production code.
.Item(cdoSendUserName) = ""
.Item(cdoSendPassword) = ""
.Item(cdoURLProxyServer) = "server:80"
.Item(cdoURLProxyBypass) = "<local>"
.Item(cdoURLGetLatestVersi
.Update
End With
With iMsg
Set .Configuration = iConf
.To = """NAME"" <EMAIL@EMAIL.EM>"
.From = """Registration"" <FROM@FROM.COM>"
.Subject = "Request for new user"
.TextBody = "text"
'.AddAttachment "C:\files\mybook.doc"
Me.MousePointer = 11
.Send
Me.MousePointer = 0

I could use an SMTP server with a log/pass.
but I just dont know the commands to use
and when u do objX. -> it does not show you a list of all available methods.
So that's the information I'm missing.
